Lyrics

Where am I?
Is this where I was destined to be?
The home that You had planned just for me?
Am I looking at what I'm supposed to see?
Or have I strayed into captivity?
Who am I?
A broken child in vomit and pee?
A wasted man, so ugly and weak?
I should probably just go die in my sleep...
Or am I here to set the captives free?


I want to say to my soul
My friend where have you been?
Just be released from this cold, dark, metal pen
I want to open my eyes
and see places of peace
and tranquility
Find my abilities
and just be me


What is this?
Something I've been missing all this time?
An important thought that's stayed outside my mind?
Have I been living blindly my whole life?
Or have I finally opened up my eyes?
When will this...
Life become what I've dreamed of at night?
When the child in me could take off in flight
Before I traded innocence for might
Will I see the Son before I die?


I want to say to my soul
My friend where have you been?
Just be released from this cold, dark, metal pen
I want to open my eyes
and see places of peace
and tranquility
Find my abilities
and just be me


(Lead Break)


I want to say to my soul
My friend where have you been?
Just be released from this cold, dark, metal pen
I want to open my eyes
and see places of peace
and tranquility
Find my abilities
and just be me
I wanna just be me
Oh yeah
